or death? It
all seems to be the same for Grace… Some
of us have been there before -- falling for the hot, popular jock who
just so happens to be dating the hot, popular girl in school. Your
snarky-but-always-right bestie insists you make a move, but you’re
not so much into putting yourself out there. Then
it happens, and suddenly you find yourself eating a cat on your
neighbor’s porch. No?
Never happened to you? Well,
Grace Watkins can’t say the same. Her hunger is growing with each
day that passes and her urges are getting harder to control. No
one can explain why her body is changing, except one man.

My
heart began to race as I stroked the soft, warm object that was now
at the level of my waist. Whatever it was, it seemed to be in a
parallel position. I took in a deep whiff from point to point,
hearing my stomach howl at me to begin my feast.

I
rubbed my hand slowly against the object, allowing the warmth to seep
through my cool fingertips. I brought my nose down, inhaling one more
large breath before I finally opened my mouth wide and sunk my teeth
in.

Tepid
liquid quickly began to pool around my lips. I sucked it up and bit
down deeper, making my way through the layers. With each one, I dug
deeper with my teeth, gnawing through…eagerly awaiting the moment I
tasted what I was yearning for.

But
before I could make it there, I heard a screech and the object began
to move.

It
was moving. It was trying to get away from me.

It
couldn’t. It was mine.

I
held it down, using all of my strength, as I searched around with my
free hand in the darkness. I felt something. Soft, feathery... almost
like a pillow. I grabbed it and quickly laid it over the source of
where the moans were coming from. The object tried to push my arms
away but I fought it. I had to protect what was mine.

I
pressed down hard using both my hands. The object continued to try to
maneuver its way out of my hold, but I used every ounce of force I
had to keep it still.

Then
finally, it stopped. I left the pillow where it was and searched for
the spot I was working on. I found it and slowly entered my finger
inside of what I had already started. Using my nails, I began to
tear. I opened wider, using my other hand to scoop out what I was
looking for this whole time. And with the first taste, my mind flew
off to a faraway land. A land that was familiar to me, but so
foreign. A place that I had only dreamed of.

Each
taste, each mouthful awakened a part of me that I had never known.
The sweet and bitter tenderness of every chew sent my body into a
whirlwind.

J.Q.
Davis is from New Orleans, Louisiana. She and her husband, an active
duty Marine, have no children but consider their pooches, Lucy and
Bella, their daughters. When
she was little girl, she aspired to become a writer. But then one
day, she learned about zombies...and now she wants to be a zombie.
